On January 5, 2015 a video titled "The Story So Far Album Teaser #1" was uploaded on the band's official YouTube channel. The video shows multiple clips of the band members with friends goofing around and having fun. At the end of the video a textroll appears, saying "We are writing a new record stay tuned..." [14] On February 23, 2015 a video titled "The Story So Far Album teaser #2" was uploaded on the same channel. This video was a lot longer than the previous one and showed much more behind the scenes-footage of the actual making of the album. At the end a roll of text appears saying "LP 3 Coming Your Way Watch Out World Here We Are Not Afraid Of The Light".[15] On March 15, the band announced their self-titled album would be released on May 18, 2015. "Solo" and "Heavy Gloom" were put on to YouTube soon after. On May 11, the band released their full album on stream on their website ahead of the release date of May 19.[16] A YouTube video, recorded April 10, 2016 at the Mod Club in Toronto, captured Parker Cannon kicking an oblivious fan in the back as she took an on-stage selfie, knocking her down into the crowd.[17]
